PART 1:
A GATHERING OF WANDERERS
Urileth's lips curled into a sly smile as she felt the impact of Billie's strike. The audacity of the ashen-haired girl amused her. "A love tap, you say? Well, my dear, you're in for much more than that," she replied, her voice laced with a hint of amusement.
As Billie leaped away, Urileth's keen senses detected the shift in the air. With a quick pivot, she anticipated the rogue's maneuver and spun around just in time to see her opponent materialize several feet behind her, sword raised for another strike.
But Urileth was no novice in the art of combat. As the flat of Billie's blade made contact with her middle, she swiftly shifted her weight and leaned away from the blow, minimizing its impact. The rogue's subsequent kick aimed at her head only managed to graze a few strands of silver hair as she ducked under it.
Chuckling lightly, Urileth straightened herself, her gaze fixed on Billie with a glint of determination. "Clever trick, my young adversary. But don't mistake experience for weakness," she retorted, her voice steady and composed.
With a graceful fluidity, Urileth adjusted her grip on her sword and stepped forward, her body poised for action. "If this were a cane you'd be on the floor by now," she remarked, a flicker of excitement dancing in her eyes.
The tension in the arena heightened as both warriors readied themselves for the next exchange, each eager to prove their mettle. The clash of youth and experience was set to continue, promising a spectacle that would leave the spectators in awe.
"If your too wuss to make the bet just say so," The man said as Mags moved a couple of seats away. "Damn young bloods." He murmured as Billie managed to smack Urileth unbeknownst to him that his coin purse was no longer on his body and instead was in the hands of Mags.
"Come on Urileth! Kick that girl's arse!" Another bystander yelled from somewhere behind Mags in reply to his cheerleading for Billie.
In a split second, Urileth saw an opening—a slight hesitation in Billie's defense. With unwavering precision, she swiftly adjusted her stance, shifting her weight with a seasoned warrior's grace. Snaking her way around Billies guard Urileth just nearly manages to cleanly nick Billie across her left shoulder. A bead of blood followed as Urileth retracted expecting a return strike from the Ashen-haired girl and attempted to disarm her with a aimed kick towards her blade hand.

SCENE INSTRUCTIONS
With no armor on, I believe Billie has an AC of 12? So if the attack hits I need Billie to make a DC 14 Strength saving throw to not be disarmed.
